Clothing wise, post op but still in the hospital what do y'all suggest? I will be having Surgery June 6th and I'm wondering what I should pack with me. I appreciate any help I can get!

I brought loose PJs with me but ended up just wearing the hospital gown the 3 days I was in the hospital.

Most just wear the hospital gown from my experience and seeing other Bariatric patients walking the halls in their hospital gowns.

You don't need a heck of a lot. I took clean underware, chargers for phone and tablet, ear plugs, hair brush and I wore clean pj's into the hospital and same pair out. The hospital provided tooth brush etc. I'd stay in the hospital gown. If you're worried about your rear hanging out ask for an extra gown and use it for a robe.

Depends if you wake up with a drain or catheter and if you do then your going to want to stay in the hospital gowns. If not, prepare some old jammies as your going to be sore and want comfort etc - also in case your wounds leak slightly.

You will be in a hospital gown during your stay. You just want to wear something loose and comfy when you leave. I had a pair of loose yoga pants and t-shirt if I remember correctly.

I brought loose PJs. Although I couldn't use them til they took the Catheter out. I also brought a wire free bra, my charger and phone, some soap and my journal. They provided toothpaste and toothbrushes there.

I ask because I try and limit my time in hospital gowns or direct contact with the sheets as I usually have an allergic reaction to whatever they use to clean or sanitize the sheets. Either way I will have a rash but the longer I stay in contact the worse it gets. Thanks for the help!

Bring a rope something the buttons up the front perhaps as sleepwear and slide on shoes too!

I brought loose fitting shirts and pj pants and underwear. It made me feel human to change out of the hospital gown asap.

Hospital gown and a robe, slippers for walking, walking!

I stayed in my hospital gown. Didn't want to ruin any of my pajamas, and I just wore the socks the hospital provided. I took the bare minimum.
